# AppImageKit roadmap
2+
3+
Volunteers wanted for the following topics. Feel free to send a PR that adds your name to list item(s).
4+
5+
## Downloading appimages from some kind of software catalog websites and app centers
6+
7+
* Define formal AppImage spec (probonopd)
8+
* Work on tool that lets one extract metadata like application name, author, license, etc. from an AppImage hosted somewhere without having to download it (think "Google for AppImages")
9+
* Get AppImage downloads into KDE Discover
10+
* Write GNOME Software plugin for AppImage
11+
12+
## Running appimage and browsing its content via file roller/ark or any other archive tool
13+
14+
* Follow up with upstream projects and/or send PRs
15+
* file-roller
16+
* ark
17+
18+
## Upgrading appimage via right click
19+
20+
* Make zsync_curl use subsequent range requests rather than requesting multiple ranges at once; otherwise Akamai is broken
21+
* Make AppImageUpdate not need the curl binary but expand zsync_curl to include the required curl functionality
22+
* Possibly replace the AppImageUpdate bash script by C code, e.g., in zsync_curl
23+
* Qt GUI in addition to the Vala/GTK 3 one
24+
25+
## Desktop integration
26+
27+
* Resurrect appimaged (probonopd; contact me if you want to take this over)
28+
* Sandbox using firejail (see the sandbox GUI integration experiments in this repository)
29+
* Test/use GNOME portals
